Major League Baseball is well under way, and the Buffalo Bisons have begun another season of play at Coca-Cola Field in downtown Buffalo. And for diehard fans of local baseball, that surely brings back memories of old ballparks such as War Memorial Stadium (The Rockpile) and Offermann Stadium.

While The Rockpile and Offermann Stadium no longer exist, there’s a baseball stadium in nearby London, Ontario, that dates back to 1877! Labatt Memorial Park — known as Tecumseh Park when it was first built — is believed to be the “world's oldest baseball park in continuous use in its original location.” Nestled at the forks of the Thames River, London’s landmark field has been a center for sports, recreational and cultural activities for more than 130 years. 

One of Canada’s favorite ballparks, Labatt Memorial Park has played host to some of the game’s greatest players, including Satchel Paige and Ferguson Jenkins. The field is maintained in pristine condition by the City of London, as a tribute to players past and present, according to media reports.

Labatt Memorial Park is located at 25 Wilson Ave. in London. To watch a brief video of the park, please click here:

The summer travel season will be here before you know it, and people all across Western New York will be planning their annual getaways. With gas prices continuing to rise, many of us will be looking for a fun getaway destination perhaps a little closer to home. If that’s the case, you may want to check out nearby London, Ontario.

The best way to do that is to watch the “Discover Our Spirit” videos produced by Tourism London. From cultural and recreational destinations to great restaurants and hotels, there are dozens of brief videos for you to check out. And while the videos are very informative, they’re not very long, each ranging from approximately one to three minutes!

If you’ve never been there, London is one of those cities that appeals to all ages. Among the attractions are a wide variety of festivals, museums, recreational facilities, shops and markets, adventure parks, theater, tours and much more.
